Office of the Provost Announces Pre-Professional Advising Center
Thursday, November 18, 2021
Ms. Vergara is looking forward to working collaboratively with the SHU community to continue to develop an interactive and innovative Pre-Professional Advising Center. She believes that preparation for professional school is developmental and starts from day 1 of a student’s undergraduate career. Therefore, students are encouraged to connect and meet with the P-PAC first semester of freshman year of college and continue every semester throughout the undergraduate journey to professional school. Consistent advising appointments are advised to ensure students are meeting professional school requirements and developing into competitive applicants. Ms. Vergara welcomes students interested in services to make an appointment via COMPASS.
